53rd over: Australia 165-4 (Wade 29, Head 26) Not a lot going on here, is there? Three singles off Wagner. Paine is padded up in the sheds, the vision shows, suggesting that this innings might have a bit of time to run yet. I haven’t got the TV commentary on but I can only imagine Shane Warne’s delight.
Thrilling stuff from Australia this morning. Starting the day with a precarious lead of 456 with only six wickets in hand, they’ve showed commendable enterprise in smashing 28 runs from just 8 overs in the first half an hour.
52nd over: Australia 162-4 (Wade 28, Head 24) Southee is pulled by Wade for one then deflected by Head for another. The veteran is not going to give them the chance to really unleash here, his line and length disciplined to the last. As they note on SEN radio, Wade is chatting to the New Zealand players between overs. I can only imagine the sort of advice he is offering them.
